Gabion Baskets

[nod]

We’ve been trying to think of something to edge around soul beds and trees

Favourite was a large quantity of sleepers

But we are sldo

considering Gabion Baskets 

Has anyonelse used these 

[lizzie]

Yes used them on a riverbank in previous house and shortly to use them in garden of current build.  I need to form a porous retaining barrier in a ha ha.

 

Looked at the plastic sleepers too and they are very good but gabions suit my plan better.

 

Tip if you have never used before .....fill them with the cheapest stone you can get but face any visible areas with nice stone.

 it hadn’t realised there were so many variations 

My wife is quite sold on the planters also
